Cryptopro EDS browser plug in does not work. How to configure Yandex browser to work with electronic signatures

Cryptographic operations, such as creating an electronic signature or decrypting a file, require access to keys and personal data of the user (for example, to a personal certificate store). When performing such operations by web applications (using the CryptoPro EDS Browser plug-in), the plug-in requests the user’s permission to access his keys or personal data.

The user's permission will be requested when activating CryptoPro EDS Browser plug-in objects.

Trusted Web sites (for example, those located on your organization's intranet) can be added to the list of trusted Web sites. Sites on the Trusted Sites list will not prompt the user for confirmation when opening the certificate store or performing operations on the user's private key.

Managing a list of trusted websites on Windows platforms

To manage the list of trusted websites in the CryptoPro EDS Browser plug-in, the user must run Start -> Crypto-Pro -> Digital signature settings Browser plug-in. This page is part of the CryptoPro EDS Browser plug-in distribution kit.

A computer or domain administrator can also manage the list of trusted websites for all users through Group Policy. Configuration is carried out in the Group Policy console in the section Computer configuration/User configuration -> Administrative templates -> Crypto-Pro -> CryptoPro EDS Browser plug-in. The following policies are available to the administrator: List of trusted nodes. Defines the addresses of trusted nodes. Websites specified through this policy are considered trusted in addition to those that the user adds independently through the CryptoPro EDS Browser plug-in settings page.

The page is saved for a specific user
HKEY_USERS\ \Software\Crypto Pro\CAdESplugin

The policy is saved in the appropriate section for policies:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Crypto-Pro\CadesPlugin\TrustedSites

Managing a list of trusted websites on Unix platforms

To manage the list of trusted websites in the CryptoPro EDS Browser plug-in on Unix platforms, use the page /etc/opt/cprocsp/trusted_sites.html, which is part of the CryptoPro EDS Browser plug-in distribution.

You can also use the command to view a list of trusted websites:

/opt/cprocsp/sbin/ /cpconfig -ini “\local\Software\Crypto Pro\CAdESplugin\TrustedSites” -view

To add websites (for example, http://mytrustedsite and http://myothertrustedsite) to the trusted list, you can use the command:

/opt/cprocsp/sbin/ /cpconfig -ini "\local\Software\Crypto Pro\CAdESplugin" -add multistring "TrustedSites" "http://mytrustedsite" "http://myothertrustedsite"

To clear the list of trusted websites, you can use the command:

/opt/cprocsp/sbin/ /cpconfig -ini “\local\Software\Crypto Pro\CAdESplugin\TrustedSites” -delparam

Adding sites to the list of trusted sites for all users is available using the command

/opt/cprocsp/sbin/ /cpconfig -ini "\config\cades\trustedsites" -add multistring "TrustedSites" "http://www.cryptopro.ru" "https://www.cryptopro.ru"

In this article we will look at quickly setting up the Yandex browser to work with electronic signatures. The following settings will work if your computer is already configured to work with electronic signatures:

  • a crypto provider has been installed (CryptoPRO CSP or another);
  • Personal certificate installed;
  • The root certificates of the Certification Authority that issued you the electronic signature are installed.

Attention!This article describes the setup process ONLY for electronic signatures issued using a crypto provider CryptoPRO CSP and for hardware keys (Rutoken EDS, JaCarta GOST, etc.). If your electronic signature was issued using another crypto provider (for example, Vipnet CSP, Lissi CSP, etc.), further settings may damage your operating system! To set up, contact the organization that issued your electronic signature!

Where can I get Yandex Browser?

You can download the Browser from the official developer page: https://browser.yandex.ru/
We will not describe the downloading and installation process; it is quite simple and understandable.

Installing components for working with electronic signatures

To work with electronic signatures you will need to install the following components:
  • CryptoPRO CSP;
  • CryptoPRO EDS Browser plugin;
  • Plugin for the e-government system (needed only to work with the State Services website and the Unified Identification of Authorities).

From January 1, 2019, CryptoPRO CSP version 4.0 and higher is recommended for use, so we recommend using it. .
Installing CryptoPRO CSP is quite simple, any user can handle it - run the downloaded file and then follow the installation wizard.

The current version of CryptoPRO EDS Browser plugin can be downloaded from the manufacturer’s website via a direct link: https://www.cryptopro.ru/products/cades/plugin/get_2_0
Installing the CryptoPRO EDS Browser plugin is also quite simple - run the downloaded file and follow the installation wizard.

You will also need to install a browser extension, you can install it from the link: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/cryptopro-extension-for-c/. When the page opens, click “Install”, after a couple of seconds the extension will be installed.

The e-government system plugin can be downloaded from the downloads page: https://ds-plugin.gosuslugi.ru/plugin/upload/Index.spr
When you click on the link, the download of the plugin will start automatically. Installing the plugin is also simple and does not require any additional configuration.
To work in Yandex Browser you will need to install an extension. To install it, you need to open Yandex Browser and open the link https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/ifcplugin-extension/ in it and click the “Install” button. After a couple of seconds the plugin should install.

Turn off unnecessary things

Along with some programs (for example, Yandex Browser), additional programs may be installed that may interfere with the normal operation of electronic signatures on some sites.

To avoid problems, we recommend removing programs such as Browser Manager , Yandex button on the taskbar , Yandex elements for Internet Explorer . They are removed using standard MS Windows tools - through Control Panel - Programs and Features.

Enabling settings for working with signatures

Enabling settings for working with electronic signatures is done through the browser menu. To do this, perform the following steps:
Open the browser menu (there is a button with three bars in the upper right corner of the browser) and select the “Add-ons” item as shown in the figure or simply open the browser://tune page in the address bar.

In the window with plugins that opens, you need to enable the plugins we need: CryptoPRO EDS and Extension for the State Services plugin (if necessary).

After enabling the plugins, you need to enable the ability to work with a secure TLS connection according to GOST. To do this, go to the browser settings and in the “Network” section, check the box “Connect to sites that use GOST encryption.” As shown in the pictures below.



After enabling these settings, you can start working with an electronic signature on the resource we need without rebooting.

Please pay attention! For the secure connection to work correctly, you must disable the antivirus while working with the signature! This is necessary when working on the Federal Tax Service website or on the ERUZ website (zakupki.gov.ru). As for the famous Kaspersky anti-virus, it needs to do " Exit"(turning it off doesn't help)!
